Wink is Cool Tools’ website that reviews one remarkable paper book every weekday. We take photos of the covers and the interior pages of the books to show you why we love them.

This week we reviewed:

Big Meals for Little Hands – Sophisticated meals that kids will enjoy making as well as eating


Dian Hanson’s History of Pin-Up Magazines

The Timechart History of the World – A spectacular 14-foot-long foldable chart that graphs world history from 4,000 BC to today

Graffiti World: Street Art From Five Continents – Jam-packed with 2000 images, Graffiti World is the best gallery of world-wide street art
